Realistic Fiction Ideas:

Blue mounds state park, fourth of July camping trip, all the buffalo, the special "Movie theater'' , getting lost while taking a walk.

Getting my thumb sucked into the side of a elevator door, having it getting yanked out, all the questions about my thumb at school.

The Minnesota zoo, seeing the Russian exhibit, petting a sting ray, the sweet smell of cotton candy coming in and out and the horrid smell of animal poo.


I wish there were stories about:
5/05/10


-Girls who like to go camping and fishing, the not so girly stuff.

-People who have strong relationships with their pets(Dog's)

-Girls who play sports like Basketball, Soccer, Softball-Baseball, and Football.

You and Ms. T have a lot in common. -Ms. Schwieters


My life issue's:

Sibling's, Gavin used to walk through the 4-6 locker bay and call me names, then open my locker. Lat year my little brother Beau would come to my class and then cry, or freak out when the teacher would talk. And Gavin will bite me for no reason, beau will have a temper tantrum when I tell him I am not going to give him a "prize."


I know you have a lot of frustrations about your brothers. Perhaps your story can be about a girl who grows to love her brothers.-Ms. Schwieters



My life issue's:

Maybe my character could have a lot of siblings, I know that would be an issue for me.

Issue's: Seasonal allergies, nose itches so much, same with eyes!


Ideas for story, Characters:
5/07/10
Blue mounds state park, I want there for fourth of July 1 or 2 years ago. There was a "secret movie theater" Witch was a medium sized screen, in like a woods part of the camp and had a projecter facing the screen, with a couple of chairs in between the 2, so we called it the "secret movie theater." After we went all the way to the movie theater, we tried to go back but we got lost, then we found a trail and got back. My character could get lost and the find the movie theater, and soon find a hidden path to get back to her site. My main character's name could be Autumn, she would have light brown hair, and hazel eyes. when Autumn goes camping, she will be there with her 5 sibling's and mom and dad, Her friend Isa, or Isabelle,

Be careful, the beginning of this is the plot for the story. The last part is you focusing on the character and who she is and what she wants. Make sure you focus on the character.-Ms. Schwieters



Character ideas:
5/10/10

My character Autumn loves sports, no matter what sport she loves them all and has 5 nasty younger siblings 2 sisters and 3 brothers: Jordan the second oldest who LOVES to dance, Mike the third who is in front of the T.V 24/7, Ella whom is the biggest girly girl the Autumn knows( when littler dug into the mom's makeup bag and hid it in her room), And twin brothers Brian and Ben who are never apart and always do the same thing.

Autumn's mom is ALL WAYS AT WORK, the 6 children fell like they never see her, but she is there all the time, (she works in a office in the basement.) Autumn's dad is a chef, and always makes crazy foods that Autumn has never heard of. Autumn also has a dog,

Great job getting back to the character-How does Autumn feel about her mom being gone? Does she have a great relationship with her dad? What does she wish for? What is she afraid of?-Ms. Schwieters
